I’m not a new Linux user but am a new Linux gamer. I landed on endeavorOS a few months ago and like it enough I converted my other two desktops over. Whether it’s just dumb luck or not it has been noticeably more snappy on all three of the workstations I put it on than anything else I was using. It’s honestly kind of eerie, after putting my work laptop (windows11) away for the day and jumping on one of my systems they are so responsive now that sometimes it feels like it’s predicting what I want to do before I do it.
Endeavor is pretty great. I haven’t tried Cachy yet, but I hear it’s like “Endeavor with less setup”, which sounds good to me. That’s one of things I love about Linux - no matter what your priorities are, there is likely an ideal distro for you.
